David Beckham is moving to the USA, he will be on the LA team or something and would be making 1million a week for 2 years. He is going to do soccor like the beatles did to music, his wife is trying to get an actting carrer and or singing career, like they said you aint famous unless your famous in the USA .
PS. sorry for no pic and getting your hopes up![]()

Sorry, but God Himself could come down and still no one in the US would be interested in soccer. Americans are more interested in real sports, like real football.
They could pay Beckham a billion dollars...it doesn't matter. Nobody cares about soccer in the U.S. It is boring. Hey, the real football playoffs are on this week..
It's a big joke. He's soo OVER THE HILL when it comes to soccer. There's a reason he's already retired from World Cup competion and that's because even he know's he can't compete anymore on that stage of soccer. He's nothing anymore except for a name. Unfortunally it will take 30-50 years for soccer to ever catch on that well here in the US. If Pele couln't do it there's no way that Becks will.
LOL, at least Vicky can try her acting career now. She's been nowhere lately, her singing career after the Spice Girls was a disaster...
Becks is a moneymaker. I never thought he'd sign the Galaxy. I thought he'd choose to stay in Europe for less money. I guess he doesn't find pleasure in playing anymore, it's just his job. Cuz for the pleasure of the game u go Europe.
Well, Basketball is quite popular here too, here in BG we have quite a lot of Americans playing for our teams.
Like this guy: Donta Smith (cute cute guy imo) LOL, playing for Lukoil Academik
And Lamont Jones playing for the same team:

I think many of you are being very hard on Mr David Beckham. You seem to begrudge him his good fortune which comes as a result of his athletic skills. We mere mortals have no idea of how much it costs to be a legend. When we find out, we are all jealous.
The reason Mr Beckham is going to be paid so much in America is that his employers are hoping he will play a little better than he has with Real Madrid, who, BTW, have not won any championships or cups or even a second place ribbon since Mr Beckham moved south to the Iberian Peninsula.
Also, Mr Beckham needs the money. His private hairdresser costs a fortune and his personal massuer is paid an arm and a leg to keep his mouth shut and his new fancy mobile phone out of the change rooms. And then there are the elocution lessons he will have to take if anyone in the USA is ever going to be able to understand him.
Jubbers should also appreciate how many poor and unfortunate people Mr Beckham supports through his contributions (via the taxman) to various nation's coffers. (He used to pay a lot more but then he got a new tax accountant and it is rumoured that the amount of tax he pays now is enough to support two hand pumps for artesian water and a child in Sierra Leone. But as I said, this is all just rumour.)
If the Beckhams become friends with the Cruises, then it is likely that the next Beckham child, whose name will be Suriruri, will have to have its own hair stylist from the day it is born. After the Beckhams join Hollywood's royalty, they will probably have further expenses when they import the odd baby or two from Rwanda or Lesotho or wherever.
I wish Mr Beckham all the best for his future sporting life. I just cannot help wondering why he was not good enough to make the English National squad.
[QOUTE]HOw long before Tom & Katie convert him to Scientology?[/QOUTE]
Not sure about that, I reckon it'll take him nine ot ten years to read Dianetics.
As or the Galay contract, if they are daft enough to throw that amount of money at him, then who can blame him for taking it? I'd bite their bloody hand off!

football??? a real sport??? you have got to be joking???? I like football as much as the next guy but come on.... in europe they play a similar game without all the armour... its called rugby.... now thats a real sport....
All we want is a headrush, all we want is to get out of our skins for a while.
I agree that professional athletes receive obscene amounts of money for what they do, but I also believe they love their respective games, whether it be baseball, hockey, football, whichevs.
And i don't think Beckham is any different in either respect.
He's been abandoned by his country's team. He's been benched by his club. The Galaxy and the MLS are going to place him squarely in the spotlight for sure, but they will also place him squarely on the pitch.
Not to mention, MLS players are not, with respect to the rest of professional sports, very well compensated, which is mostly due to the league's low-profile in a saturated sports market. The loosening of the salary rules is going to be good for the rest of the players who will have an opportunity to earn more, provided they play competively enough with enough success, which will result in more exciting gameplay and make the MLS a stronger and more popular league at home and abroad.
I hope.

If it was a small figure then it wouldn't have as much weight and people wouldn't be bothered or take notice...inflation causes interest. I don't think £128million is the actual wage package for playing, week by week, it is a corporate deal as well over 5 years, tied in with his Soccer Academy and business. And I don't think he is expecting 'soccer' to be suddenly majorly popular, the objective is to make it a step higher in popularity, no-one expects it to be in the same league as baseball and basketball, but it is about time it got a leg-up, and soccer has been around for decades in the States. He is almost single-handedly going to raise soccer to new heights, it is a lot of pressure.
And popular US baseball and basketball players make the same or more, because they have American sponsorship deals that are on the side, but are way more than their playing wages.
LA has no NFL team - can't think of an LA hockey franchise either
this is a golden opportunity to expand soccer's appeal in the #2 market (a sports hungry market) in the US and also natonally
the deographics of the US are changing too - many (almost all) of the newer non-native born Americans are soccer fans, and Chicago just bullt a huge stadium for soccer and is filling the place up
even though it is outside of the attention of many of us, soccer is here, and this deal makes it much more here - it won't take much to rival and maybe eclipse hockey as out 5th sport
Why is he bringing his Primadona ass over here? He does his hair more than most black women (and we don't play about our hair). Most Americans don't know nor do they care who he is.
I'm not buying his BS about helping soccer popularity here in the US. He just wants us Americans to care about his every move like Europeans do because they want to be like Brad and Angelina (very well known worldwide).
In the words of Vivica A. Fox: You can put that where? Back there.![]()

Yeah, the bitch is BACK!
Oh, I don't care...he is hot and if he wants to come to the US, I am not complaining. If anything, the Beckham image will grow...I don't see him making a dent in the US' interest in soccer. I just hope that Becks doesn't get brainwashed by Tom Cruise.
pic of the hot man ?
My Dream would be to have just one night with RYAN DAHARSH

Dont care much for soccer or football but damnnn I'd never kick beckham outta my bed... he will be nice to look at![]()
umm, i don't know about where the 30-50 years statistics came from... I coach little kids for soccer and I've noticed a lot more kids playing soccer these days since the World Cup. I'm saying this based on the size of my paycheck from this gig recently. Also it's a real sport worldwide, it's a rude awakening for those who say otherwise. It's just like life, some people eat cocks, some people eat pussies. Different strokes for different folks, dude.
Uhh i love that ass in white speedos. He is stunningly hot.
With that sort of muscular body and a strong pelvic area he must be a great banger

About 30 years ago, I remember hearing as a kid that soccer was "about to break through". Sorry, it ain't going anywhere. It's a game you play as a kid, then turn off the TV as fast as you can.
He'll do a lot more for USsoccer than Pele or anyone else so far.
Whether that will amount to a lot is another question.
I would bet it will. But not 'the whole ranch.'

He is only coming to America to start his Hollywood career. Reports are stating that Tom Cruise was the one that sealed the deal of "The Becks" coming to America.
i herd hes only playing soccor but his wife wants a movie carrer, thats were tom and kati come to play sonce katy and his wife are Bffs, so he might do one or 2 movies but his wife would like to be in movies. like i hurd and said many times you aint a movie star until your a movie star in the US
I dont care what he does or where he does it as long as he keeps doing photo ops its all good with me!
No, it's meant to ridicule the only people who play soccer after 4th grade in America.
In the high school I went to in Canada, the guys who played soccer were the same ones who quoted Monty Python ad naseum and played Dungeons and Dragons and listened to songs that were only hits in England.
Sorry, but Soccer is never going to be a stadium-filling sport in America no matter how much fun it is and how popular it is in the rest of the world.
Considering I'm not famous, you sure do talk about me a lot.
"have you ever known of a hater that's doing better than you?" -Chris Crocker.
CNN/SI reporter said the $250m figure is greatly exaggerated, he will be on the same wage he is on at Real Madrid for playing, the $250m figure is a POTENTIAL figure if after 5 years ticket stubs increase, more fans register with the club, the game is taken up a level, LA Galaxy make more money etc
His playing wage is not $250m over 5 years at all. The real figure will only be known when he has signed the contract, insiders say it will be no more than $5million a year.
i saw this picture earlier, but i found a blown up version of it. thought you guys would enjoy a nice beckham boner
if that link doesnt work, then the address is http://socialitelife.com/images/2006/07/db072406_03.php
Love him....?
Hate him....?
BECKHAM
Strip away all the media circus bollox, the glamour, the bad publicity, the dumbass bint of a wife....
Your left (i believe) with one seriously hot horny fucka
Be interested to hear from our Jubbers stateside on what they think - he's commin ur way pretty soon!
How about loathe him as an option?
![]()
We can encorporate that in no probs.....
Dont mean u wouldnt still fuck him - anger sex....lol
so
Love Him..........?
Hate Him..........?
Loathe Him.......?
he is pretty....and sexy....but come on, he needs to come out of the closet..there is NO straight man with that much style sense. plus the kids are probably adopted or donor babies.
Lincoln, arrive like you mean it....
Hate him.
He's more of a marketing tool than a footballer. Teams only sign him for the boost to shirt sales, not what he may do on the pitch.
Beyond that, its irrelevant to me how good looking he may or may not be.
He needs a speech coach. That nasal whining sound that he makes is quite annoying.
Hate him and that horror of Victoria...
You hit the nail on the fuckin' head, Gaz1978, TOOL that he is. Oh don't get me started on his "fashion sense", he is another one that is just plain SUSPECT. Victoria is just with him for the publicity, and nothing else. She secured her financial future by getting knocked up 3 times, so you guys know the rest.
BTW, I LOATHE him. Him and Barbie Brown needs to hop, skip, and jump their EXTRA asses back to the UK because us Americans don't care.We prefer our fashion icons to be the likes of dingbat Naomi "I'll beat yo ass" Campbell, Giselle Baunchen, all the folks of Hollyweird n' dem.
To my baby, Nik2, if that is your boy, I'm sorry boo. I can't stand that troll named David Beckham. He is the reason why I looked Real Madrid and Manchester United screwface. He brings nothing to the table besides that "Look at me, I am pretty" factor.
![]()
Yeah, the bitch is BACK!
LOL, so funny yet so true.
He's trying so hard to be accepted over here. He's not letting the fact that Americans detest soccer hinder him from "making" it over here. And I heard from foreign posters that his best days are behind him in soccer. Well, I guess you can say that looks-wise too.
PS: I'm sure he's a nice guy. I just don't understand the hype. He's not that good looking.

Totally agree. I also agree with Tierra and Lostlover's comment as well. They are spot on.
One thing I don't like about him is that damn VOICE...can someone please stop him from speaking.. his voice is very very irritating. He's good looking, but not exactly up to the standards he is hyped up to be. Definitely overrated in the looks department.
Finally.. he needs to come out of the CLOSET. I don't like debating who is gay or straight.. but that man has "queer" written all over him.
BTW are those his real kids or are they adopted??
They "suppose" to be his biological child, but The White Woman without a nose, opps, I mean Michael Jackson said the same thing about his test tube babies he calls kids. So who knows?

Yeah, the bitch is BACK!
I don't really know the guy, but I'm always a bit wary of the people who say 'oh I don't find him attractive at all'...like if they were in the situation were he just dropped trou these people would be like - "um, no thanks David put it away!"...right!
Don't put words in my mouth or others. I never said I didn't find him attractive. I just don't see what all the hype is about him. He is attractive.. but he isn't all that..
You may find him to be a goddess but I don't.... would I kick him out of my bed. HELL NO..
Read before posting crap!!
love him :]
Benluc..
